Anyone had strings made into a gift?

There’s a company that makes bracelets from famous players’ guitar strings - theguitarwrist.co.uk
Someone was selling a Joe Perry bracelet on here a while ago. That site might give you some inspiration. Look up unis and colleges that do jewellery courses and see if a student could make it for you?

I have a member of the family in America that makes jewelry with used guitar strings
In my teens I made a necklace for a girl friend using a flat wound bass string.
I did the same, for my ex, but the police with torches arrived just as I was going to wrap it around her neck from behind in that alley :)Roland said:In my teens I made a necklace for a girl friend using a flat wound bass string.
Thank you. Will check out the suggestions above.
Somebody who worked at my local guitar shop would save the ball ends from the old strings she changed. These were sorted into the various sizes and colours, ready to be turned into bracelets.
I was left a guitar this year by a late friend. The guitar needs restringing as it won't stay in tune. I'm thinking of having the old strings made into a gift for his mum.
Any ideas or recommendations for a someone that can do this?
